Was "crystal clear armor" ever a thing with Iron Man? I have never seen Iron Man wear a "crystal clear armor" on top of his armor. I admit I'm no expert on all Iron Man armors. Or was that supposed to represent an energy shield?

"The most interesting feature for the figure is the inclusion of clear plastic parts that go on top of the armor, offering a pretty unique appearance among their Iron Man armors. ...They not only add additional sculpted elements, but also have some painted on details that blend in with the existing red and gold armor."

Or was this "crystal clear armor" simply for visual effect?

That's what I was wondering as well. Not familiar with clear armor. Could just be a concept piece that Hot Toys decided to add to make their figure more unique.
